Loretta Lynn's son, Ernest, recently had surgery to treat his kidney failure. Initially, there were concerns that the surgery may not have been successful. However, there is now some positive news to report. Ernest's wife, Crystal, shared an update on Monday (Jan. 29) stating that he has started to experience significant improvements in his health.
Crystal expresses on Facebook that she cannot provide any logical explanation for the situation other than attributing it to God. She highlights the abrupt change in circumstances, where one day they were not able to successfully undergo dialysis for three weeks, but the next day they were able to. Similarly, one day they were facing potentially grave circumstances, but the next day the seriousness seemed to diminish. The uncertainty about the future was replaced by a newfound confidence that the days ahead would be positive and promising.
She expresses that GOD is capable of achieving things that we, as humans, cannot. She further mentions that GOD has already accomplished it. Crystal also posts a picture of Ernest recovering in a chair at a medical facility. He is connected to devices but seems to be resting comfortably.
During Ernest's difficult time with his medical issues, Crystal has been reaching out to fans for their support and prayers for her husband's recovery. In her most recent update, she emphasizes the significant impact that prayer has had on Ernest's improving health.
She expresses her gratitude, acknowledging that none of their achievements would have been possible without the faith of others, the support of their almighty God, and the prayers they received. She thanks everyone for being a part of their support system and for caring enough to dedicate time to pray for them. She further expresses gratitude for everyone being a part of God's army and states that they are eternally grateful.
Additionally, she mentions that Ernest has the privilege of being able to return to his own residence for the purpose of recuperating following his time
